Innocent or Not

Ace look at Bethany from afar and was truly disgusted by her. She sits there with her friends and laugh about nothing important; it only ticked Ace off more.

"So you want this girl beaten because she messed with your girlfriend?" Noah says with a cocky grin. Ace scowls at him and sends him a glare. "Oh you're serious! Well then I might have to meet this girlfriend of yours."

Ace only smiled sarcastically at his friend. Though he didn't want any male to met Lia , he was okay with just Noah meeting her. "Look I don't want her dead. I'm no murder." Noah smirked at that and Ace only shook his head. "I just want to teach her a lesson to not mess with Lia or there will be consequences."

"Oh ... oh so her name is Lia . That seems like a cute name." Noah smiles as he sparkles his eyes to Ace. He only looked at his friend with disgust.

"Can you do it or not?"

Noah thought for a second before agreeing. He might be his friend but he was still his boss . "I got you man." Noah pats Ace's shoulder before walking out of his office. Ace looked at the clock and nearly cursed himself . He was going to be late for school again.
